No it doesn’t but the Democras and the far left nut cases sure do.

Aggressive perimeter pressure on our shooters. We got out of sorts in the 1st half. Need to be able to drive to relieve the pressure. We did better in the 2nd half.

They were on Robinson and Brea at the catch . I think the energy they expended on defense was a factor late in the game. Honestly, we were beginning to pull away at the end .

I maintained that Maluach getting injured or cramping or whatever was a big catalyst for our comeback.

He was really tough inside.

Didn't we hit more threes in the first half?

Hate listening to Bilas and company also- I always sync my TV with the radio and listen to Goose- much better play-by-play

We will be in town in the early afternoon on the 30th and leave on the 1st. Outside of the game and finding somewhere to watch Monday night football on the 30th we haven't made any plans yet. Probably be around the area our hotel is (Springhill suites) with the mall and everything close by. Unless we can arrange a distillery tour but with new years it's probably tough.

My email is ripamaru96@gmail.com if you want to set something up.

Huh? You asked me several times. "Why do you hate this country so much?? " Now, I'm asking you that question. 😹 🤣

Everybody I associate with has never been happier nor more proud of their country or the American voters, so you are wrong. You really should start being proud of this country. Bad look.

Go pound sand, cry inside and project some more. 🤣

That real hard screen he put on that trash talking guard 14 that sent him to the locker room I truly believe set the tone for that beat down Kentucky gave Duke in the 2nd half man what a screen

If you have had a vaccination recently you may have recognized that when James came back from the locker room after a brief exit he was wearing a bandaid on his shoulder. They shot him up with something in the back room.

Pope is making me even angrier at Cal. Such an incompetent in-game coach. Just think of what could've been accomplished, with all that talent, had Cal been at least an above average in-game coach. Just the lack of simple things that nearly every coach does.

This entire last few months feels like a TOTAL reversal and course correction for Kentucky basketball.

Did Trump show up at the White House dressed like Corn Pop?

This guy truly is a goob. He keeps portraying that he has thick skin but it's as thin as they get.

Going forward Pope has to be thinking about running more motion and screens to get more open looks for our shooters. At times our offense became stagnant and that’s when we started falling behind. Duke really guarded the three point line well and other teams will try to do the same.
I’d really like to see him work on some zone defense just for Arkansas because we all know Cal teams suck against it.
Great win!!

While I get what you are saying, I watched some of the Kansas/Michigan State game and neither team played half as much defense as Duke did last night. Most teams will not be able to defend us like Duke did. Also, all that energy they expended playing such tight defense was part of the reason they were exhausted at the end of the game.

Garrison is the dude we need for matchups like this. Williams is very good but a but you can tell he was out of his comfort zone. Garrison was huge.

He played great. I wasn’t expecting it but glad to see it.

We’ve been on the losing end of that for pretty much 15 years. This is one of the first times as a Kentucky fan where I watched us win by being the clearly less talented team. Jaxson Robinson played like absolute ass, we looked completely out of synch, ton of turnovers etc and we fought and gutted out a win against a top 10 team on a huge stage. We were 7.5 pt underdogs. And it was extremely satisfying and fun and amazing. What a great job by the guys sticking together as a team and fighting. And if, in popes 3rd game, this is the type of heart and fight we can expect moving forward then look out college bball. What a great game,

Agree 100%. And one could argue that Duke losing it's composure down the stretch and tightening up WAS because of our experience, our 2nd half resurgence, and Duke having a good deal of young players maybe not ready for this moment just yet.

I think the only thing I still want to see in this new era.. is maybe a little more talent. I still suspect that what will ultimately doom UK in the tournament, will be a team like Duke that has NBA talent almost across the board. BUT.. we're getting that level of talent as soon as next year, with guys like Lewis, Moreno, and Johnson. That's really it for me.. I saw enough last night in the 2nd half to think that Pope will be just fine as far as X's and O's, game management, etc.
